Pinnacle refused to let me deposit a large amount solely because I live in the only province that’s licensed in Canada. The main reason I wanted to bet with Pinnacle was their low juice. Grudgingly I deposited at Bookmaker instead but I just realized that it may not be as bad as I originally thought. I’m going to show my math to see if it’s right or not.

Pinnacle’s rough juice:

Sides: Big leagues are -105 to -106
Sides: Small leagues are -107 to -110
Totals: Big leagues are -106 to -108
Totals: Small leagues are -107 to -110

They offer no bonuses
They offer no cash back
I assume they cover Bitcoin fees when you deposit

Bookmaker’s rough juice:

Bookmaker is -108 on almost everything
They offera 20% bonus with a 8x roll over
They cover all Bitcoin fees when you deposit.
They offer a 0.008% cash back on all bets made

For this I am going to assume that all Pinnacle juice is -105 when it’s clearly more.

I deposit $100,000
Plus the 20% bonus is $120,000
The 8x rollover is now $960,000
Which means I have to bet 192 of $5,000 each

Bookmaker juice is -108 and Pinnacle is -105 which means I’m paying an extra $150 each bet by betting with Bookmaker.

192 BM bets @ a loss of $150 each one is $28,800 total loss. BM gives you 0.008% cash back which is a total loss of $7,680. The savings are only about $1,000 if ALL pinny games are -105 but the majority are not.

Thoughts anyone? LOL

Open the Pinny account back up.

Have as many outs as you can.

If you're making $150 bets then why not get that Pinny account moving? Put a few grand in here and there and keep it open out.

Take advantage of whatever deals and bonuses you can, but keep your option of houses as open as you can.

Max bonus at bookmaker is $2500.
Also, depending on what you are betting bookmaker may offer a better line than pinny quite often. If you are gonna be betting that kinda money you should definitely have multiple outs.
Consider BOL and Heritage.
Absolutely do not deposit at Bovada.
GL!
Ace is spot on with every word in this post.
This guy knows.

That’s not a bad approach given the low deposit limits you face at Pinnacle.

However, if you show any indication of even being half-sharp BM will revoke the BetPoints and bonuses.

Yeah they definitely will, still getting offers from JB right now, BK has stripped me of BP's & FP's.
